Tibalt, on May 03 2012 - 06:15, said: A good question was put forth, why not an across the board change
on matchmaking? What is the negative impact that would have? Fair
fights? Seriously, what is the bad that would come from having
people only fight within a tighter class, like 1-2 tiers? Would the
wait times be excessive? I would certainly wait a minute for a
better matchup and i'm sure others would as well.GeneralDirection: Not all vehicles are created equal, so an across the board
reduction is not viable.
hihilow56, on May 03 2012 - 13:58, said: Thank you, i personaly need time to grind this and my T-44 so any
delays in it are not a problem for me, so oeep keeping on 
also, on turrets such as the 'Porsche' where the front armor is rounded down, in real life, hitting it and being unable to pen it would cause (on the lower part of the frontal turret armor) the round to ricochet off it and hit the soft uper hull armor, a comon sight on the WWII battle field by sherman tankers. Does this work in WoT?
GeneralDirection: I'll defer this question to The Chieftain when he's back in the
office.
Death187, on May 03 2012 - 16:10, said: Any reason why the Devs decided to clone the JT into a T8 premium
instead of rolling out a new premium TD? Why not make an E75 TD
since it will not be rolled out in the new TD line? I am very
concerned that there will be a large increase in the number of JTs
in each match once the premium goes live. It will give everyone
much more experiance with fighting them and could make it harder
for those of us that play our T9 JT.Edit: Second Question for you... With there ever be the option to buy back the speacial tanks we were given which we sold? Ex. beta tester tanks, pre order tanks, bonus code tanks etc...
GeneralDirection: It's not a full clone of the JT. I can't really comment on the E75,
since there's always a chance that more vehicles will be introduced
in the future beyond what we've announced. It's an online game
after all, and we have no plans of slowing development support for
it for the foreseeable future.
Buying back tanks, probably not. We're considering changing tanks so that they cannot be sold if they are given out as gifts, through preorders, etc.

Darkflame, on May 03 2012 - 19:09, said: Now that you have promised players a one way move of accounts to
the SEA server. Could you please allow this service on your other
servers,You have a big player base and many of us move between NA
and EU and would like our account to follow. As an example I
started playing when WoT came out in US and have since moved to
Europe. With 250 days p. account and 30+ tanks (including 4 Tier
10's) just starting a new account is not fair. Nor is it fair to
ask us to play CW in the middle of the night. I will be happy to
pay for the account transfer $25-$50 it means that much to me (and
a lot of others)GeneralDirection: We have no plans of implementing server transfers for other regions
at this time.
misscleo, on May 03 2012 - 22:09, said: Will you remove team damage from random battles? Hardly ever does a
player accidentally shoot a friendly; most cases it's because
someone got angry or greedy(arty). Not worth the small amount
realism it provides, especially considering in real life, we don't
go shooting friendly tanks.TKing is not fun for anyone, and leads to frustration and all that negative stuff. Add on to that the complication of trying to properly compensate victims while not making it profitable for griefers only further adds to my point of removing team damage. Also, if it's unfair for artillery to not worry about team damage, you could make it so any shells that hit a friendly and explode or bounce, will not damage an enemy. Or go even further and make it so any shells exploding within some specified radius around a friendly, will not damage an enemy.
GeneralDirection: We will not be removing team damage from random battles. That would
remove a lot of critical thinking from strategies players use if
they were able to fire freely and move around freely without
concern of receiving team damage for playing carelessly. That's why
we've developed the TK system to discourage serial team killing.
Herr_Klug, on May 04 2012 - 19:24, said: Has there been any more talk about the
super-jumbo-deluxe-collectors edition retail version of WoT which
was supposed to contain the unreleased prem tanks? Or has this been
taken off the table? I figured with the one year anniversary we
would have had it released or at least heard some info. What's the
dealio?GeneralDirection: We've shelved the collectors edition for now.
MrSpleen, on May 07 2012 - 15:57, said: The french tanks have recently had major nerfs which was required
however as you may have noticed they are not being played as much
as other nations any longer and require a buff will they recieve a
slight buff now as they are now considered by most to be almost
unplayable?Main faults:
No gun depression
Acceleration on heavies significantly nerfed
Damage output reduced
Very easily tracked
ROF reduced
Almost no armour '50-120 can be penned by tier 4 tanks easily unlike all other tier 9's'
Main advantage
Still an excelent sniper with nasty gun
Great for sneak attacks (coming up behind somone while there fighting somone else)
Great Penetration (except for 0 damage pen shots which usually result in enemy being at 30% and you having 40 seconds to reload while they turn there gun at you at close range)
GeneralDirection: We're constantly reviewing data on tanks played and have not seen a
reduction in French tank use that warrants 'buffs'. We're pretty
happy with the balance of the tanks after the changes.

one?GeneralDirection: Mediterranean.
